In C:\Users\<your_name>\.android add a file named advancedFeatures.ini

add these parameters inside the advancedFeatures.ini file

Vulkan = off
GLDirectMen = on

Now Start AVD

mine was actually in here : C:\Android\.android (make sure you can see adv folder so you know you're in the right folder) – kiratot Aug 04 '21 at 15:39
@kiratot It is the default folder of android at the time of installation. – Irvin Joao Aug 04 '21 at 23:05

In AVD manager, click on the "Edit" icon next to your required virtual device. Then change emulated performance -> graphics from Hardware or None to Software. Works like a charm.

I solved this problem using two different SO answers.

I needed to change the Emulated Performance Graphics option to Software, as described in this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/58392200/137670. If your Graphics option is enabled that should do it.
My Graphics option was not enabled, so I used this answer to enable it: https://stackoverflow.com/a/58376934/137670

Changing to Software for the Graphics Performance worked for me. I was running Android Studio within a Virtual Machine on my Mac. – software is fun Nov 16 '20 at 15:08

Why oh why would this be the accepted answer??? How does this help anyone? – Stijn de Witt Jul 09 '21 at 10:28
I don't remember the brand of this docking station. I just unplugged it and plugged all my devices into the computer. Sorry, but that's all I can say about it. – Dominika Zając Jul 09 '21 at 12:54

This helped me. My docking station is Dell D6000. The silly thing is that once the virtual device is started, you can re-plug into the docking station, and it works on whatever screen. It is only the boot time of the virtual device, when the docking station must be unplugged. – zuraff Jul 16 '21 at 20:06

Finally solved this issue. I don't know why it causes troubles but Vulkan-rt doesn't work properly when the Bandicam app is downloaded on PC.

Download the amdvlk64.dll f.e. here - first offered web site in google search
Unzip it and put amdvlk64.dll file into the C:\Windows\System32 (if Win10)
Delete 'Bandicam' through the system.

I get this error suddenly while I am running my code. So how I solve the problem is,

Go to AVD Manager.
Edit your AVD.
Select 'Software GLES2.0' option on Emulated Performance.
Click Finish.
Start AVD again. enter image description here

I think this is because of the Hyper-V enabled.

Please disable Hyper-V and try again.

Thank you.
